jamboinglasgow Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) 9 minutes ago, iantjambo said: Leeds,Celtic and Rangers all credited with interest in him during the summer apparently. almost signed for Aston Villa in the summer but move fell through because of financial issues at Villa. Also Sky said he was about to sign for Swansea in early August but that too fell through (dont know the reason, but I could imagine it could be to do with compensation required to be paid to Wednesday.) He was even linked with Wolves, Fulham and Everton (according to one article I looked at but will take that with a pinch of salt. One think I would caution if he signs, prepare for a lot of disparaging comments about Scottish football from Sheffield Wednesday fans. He really annoyed them that he turned down the contract from them (for what appears to be more money) so they will (wrongly) see Scottish football as a step down and mock him for it.

Probably an arrangement with Rangers, if any other club is about to sign a really good player Rangers must be declared to have had an interest so the club doesn't have fans accusing them of failing to keep an eye on players. Would be disappointed if it is just a year deal. If he does turn out to be a really decent player would want to get some money for him if he went.

Was thinking the same. Sounds very like McLaughlin situation (i.e. could and potentially should be earning more elsewhere but ended up without a club and need a shop window). However, there was a LOT of negativity about Jon, and I’d expect the same will happen here. From Jan onwards there will be much bumping of gums about ‘who does he think he is’ / ‘he should show some loyalty’ etc etc. Not sure that’s great for squad or club/supporter harmony TBH.

I'm guessing that, like McLaughlin, he's only considering the SPFL as a stop-gap and wouldn't accept a longer deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owlvisiting Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 As a #swfc season ticket holder I saw a bit of Sean last year and he certainly is a talent. Comfortable on the ball and whilst not pacy can move well across the park. Can dig in and has an eye for goal. Could have a promising future in the game. Only downside is that he can seem a bit 'full of himself' is Sean Flair ! Nothing that CL can't knock out of him I'm sure. SWFC can do with the £ 100k compo having only just having come through a transfer embargo. Paying your other recent loan target Jordan Rhodes an estimated £ 30k a week didn't help.

tazhearts Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Surely it has to be at least a two year deal if we are paying £100,000+ for him. Maybe with a minimum release clause built in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we do have some history in signing supposed pacy players who haven't shown it in matches, so maybe just as well we aren't after him for his pace!

I'll believe this when it's confirmed however as it just seems too good to be true. Seemingly Villa, Leeds and Swansea would have had to pay a massive compensation fee as those clubs play in English Leagues and the rules dictate much higher compo. By the sounds of it, he is an absolute bargain at the price and has huge potential. Fingers crossed this happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
